Abstract
The present invention provides an IC card issuance system that issues an IC card by writing issuance data including an ID specific to the IC card into a memory of the IC card, wherein, when reissuing an IC card identical to an issued IC card, an ID of an IC card to be reissued is read out from the IC card. A record having an ID that corresponds to the read out ID is retrieved and output from an issuance file having stored issuance data of the issued IC card therein, and reissuing of the IC card is based on the output record (issuance data).
